Silver, Rested, Aged: How to Choose Your Bottle

Silver is unaged and bottled without oak maturation: bright, vegetal, mineral. If a Margarita is the plan, start here; it's built to cut through lime and salt without disappearing.

Rested spends a short stretch in oak. Expect a rounder texture and a gentle caramel note without losing the vegetal core underneath. A good middle ground for someone who wants a spirit that works in a cocktail and holds its own over one large ice cube.

Aged goes furthest into the barrel, dark, slow, built for a glass on its own after dinner rather than a shaker. If you're buying one bottle to sip rather than mix, this is the one.
